My Dangerous Heart is one of the spring anime series that will be broadcast from April 2023! There are other works with similar content, but this romantic comedy is a little different! ? I would like to introduce the highlights and charms of My Dangerous Heart, which also has the author's unique bad jokes and dirty jokes!
The protagonist is a gloomy, middle school syndrome, and short person at the bottom of the school caste system!
First of all, the protagonist of this work, Ichikawa Kyotaro, is a gloomy, middle school syndrome, short person, and has no friends. In the classroom, the protagonist always reads a dangerous book called the Murder Encyclopedia, and is constantly fantasizing about killing his classmates. He is what they call a chuunibyou, but those who are in a stronger position and can fight back do so without fantasizing. Perhaps he is a chuunibyou because he is in a weaker position and can only fight back in his imagination. He believes himself to be mentally ill, but he is a perfectly normal protagonist. Although he is such a complicated protagonist, he has the strength to push aside his own character and take a step forward.
A heroine who is cheerful, tall, and goes at her own pace, and is at the top of the school caste system!
The heroine of this work, Yamada Anna, is a cheerful, tall, laid-back girl with many friends, good-looking enough to be a reader model, and has appeared on TV and in movies, making her the top of the school caste system. Ichikawa, a socially weakling, is so far below her that she is hesitant to even talk to him, at least that's what Ichikawa thinks. However, in reality, she is a greedy eater who sneaks food into the library and snacks on it, a very natural, laid-back heroine who is always supported by her friends. Even though she is a celebrity, she is just one of the many celebrities (for now). There's no doubt that she's out of reach, but she's also on the edge of being real.
Is it inevitable that two people who would never meet would meet?
At first, the protagonist Ichikawa didn't like Yamada, who was at the top of the caste system. Or rather, he mistakenly thought that he was being looked down upon, and even fantasized about killing him. On the other hand, Yamada was not aware of Ichikawa at all. However, Yamada, who is so greedy that he brings snacks to school, where food is prohibited, seeks a safe place to eat, and Ichikawa, who is an introvert and finds it difficult to stay in the classroom, begins to hang out in the library during lunch breaks and after school in search of peace of mind. The two, who originally had no other connection apart from being classmates, meet there. It feels like the meeting between an introvert and a gluttonous extrovert was bound to happen.
Ichikawa, the introvert protagonist, is creepy and cute! ?
The protagonist, Ichikawa, a gloomy chuunibyou, gradually becomes aware of his feelings of love and has to face himself. Ichikawa creates another self in his mind to consult with, and he stands up to romantic comedy events that a gloomy person would have no problem with, behaving suspiciously and exuding creepiness. Because Ichikawa, a gloomy person, does things that are out of his league, he writhes in agony and hates himself for being a creepy person, but he faces them in a way that is creepy and cool, and I think it's a creepiness that you can empathize with!
The cheerful heroine, Yamada, is super cute and innocent! ?
The protagonist Ichikawa is also a charming protagonist, but the heroine Yamada is also a very charming character. Although she is the top character in the class, she is actually very innocent and goes at her own pace. Moreover, she has many weaknesses, so she often makes mistakes and makes many mishaps. That's what makes her a comedic relief and interesting.
There's laughter! There's dirty jokes! The dirty jokes that are unique to junior high school students are also vivid and realistic!
This work is basically drawn with a comedic touch, and the gag developments that are common among introverts and the feeling that the laid-back and natural Yamada makes mistakes and gets into trouble are depicted as a comedy, so it is basically a funny and bright work that you can watch without feeling uncomfortable. Also, this author is a dirty joke demon who loves dirty jokes, so there are quite a few dirty jokes. However, I think that this author keeps it under control. There are no absurd dirty jokes, and the dirty jokes are typical of junior high school boys and the kind of dirty jokes that make you hold your crotch at a small incident, so it's not too unpleasant. This is the kind of vulgar joke that would be expected of a junior high school student.
It's good that the two of them start to understand each other little by little after they start to interact!
At first, Ichikawa only saw Yamada as an unpleasant nobleman, but after seeing his greedy and somewhat absent-minded side, he naturally began to follow him with his eyes and follow him behind the scenes. And after he realized that Yamada was also helping him behind the scenes, he gradually became aware of his feelings. The timing at which they fell in love with each other was so seamless that it was hard to tell, but that's just how it is in love.
The subtle emotions of the protagonist, who is a mass of inferiority complex, are carefully crafted and realistic!
At the end of the first volume of the comic, Ichikawa probably thought that Yamada probably liked him. However, Ichikawa, who is an introvert, short, socially awkward, and has a strong inferiority complex, wonders whether he has the right to like someone in the first place. Normally, an introvert who is an extrovert, a celebrity, a tall, pretty girl, and someone who is not supposed to have any kind of relationship with her ends up in a romantic comedy by mistake. It's like being forced into a pool even though you can't swim, and struggling in agony. It's so realistic that it's realistic to the point that you can really empathize with it!
I can't help but grin at the fact that he has such a strong inferiority complex that he doesn't notice her feelings!
Ichikawa has a strong inferiority complex and thinks it is impossible for a positive person to be liked by a negative person, so even if Yamada musters up the courage to show his affection, he doesn't notice it at all and gets sulky, which is cute and makes me grin. Even if someone greets him, a lonely negative person has the habit of not thinking that it is a greeting directed at him. He is by no means an insensitive protagonist, but rather a sharp protagonist, so there are many scenes where he is confused and in agony, but the scenes where he naturally ignores the affection make me grin.

A work currently being serialized in Weekly Young Jump. The protagonist, Shiraishi-kun, is a mob character with an extremely low presence and is eerily unrecognizable by others, but only Kubo-san, who sits next to him, is able to recognize him, and as she interacts with Shiraishi-kun, she begins to fall in love with him. A romantic comedy about an extremely inconspicuous mob protagonist and a beautiful, high-achieving heroine who would never meet in real life. The works are similar, or rather, they are actually collaborating.
Similar Work No. 2: Komi-san wa, Komyushou desu.
A work currently being serialized in Weekly Shonen Sunday. A romantic comedy depicting the interactions between Tadano-kun, a high school boy who is too ordinary in every way, and Komi-san, a high school girl who is super beautiful but has an unapproachable atmosphere. Komi-san is a character who gives off a cold and cool impression, but in fact she is just extremely bad at communication, and Tadano-kun, who overlooked this fact in the first episode, begins to help Komi-san make friends. Although the characters' personalities are different, I think the composition of the protagonist secretly helping the heroine is quite similar.
Similar Works 3: High Score Girl
This work was serialized in Monthly Big Gangan and was also made into an anime. A boy with no redeeming qualities other than gaming, Yaguchi Haruo, meets Ohno Akira, a high-ranking citizen from a different world from him, at an arcade. In order to protect his pride, they have a terrible encounter in which they fight in a real fight using MachiGile and throwing hooks, and after learning about her situation, they deepen their relationship through games. This is a romantic comedy. In addition to the gag taste, the structure of the protagonist changing himself and working hard is similar, and I personally think that this is the most common thing they feel.
Highlights and attractions of [My Dangerous Heart]
Here's a summary of the highlights and attractions of My Dangerous Heart! It starts with the mismatched relationship between the protagonist, a gloomy chuunibyou, and a cheerful, natural beautiful girl, and the protagonist struggles in this romantic comedy that has the heat of a shounen manga, laughs, dirty jokes, and heat! I think it's one of the most interesting animes of the spring, so I hope you'll check it out!
